Hoisting the vehicle
When hoisting the vehicle, it is important to
ensure the jack/vehicle hoist is correctly
engaged in the designated attachment points
under the vehicle.
For vehicles with self-leveling*, pneumatic sus-
pension (if installed) must be turned off before
the vehicle is lifted. Turning off the function in the
center display.
WARNING If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the
jack must be placed under one of the four lift-
ing points. Make sure that the vehicle is cor-
rectly positioned on the jack and that it can-
not slide off. Make sure the jack plate has a
rubber pad to help keep the vehicle stable
and prevent damage. Always use axle stands
or similar.
NOTE Volvo recommends only using the jack
intended for your specific vehicle model. If a
jack other than that recommended by Volvo is
used, follow the instructions included with the
equipment.
The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended to
be used in temporary situations for short peri-
ods of time, such as when changing wheels in
the event of a flat tire. If the vehicle needs to
be lifted more frequently, or for a longer
period of time than for a wheel change, a
garage jack or hoist is recommended. Always
follow the instructions for use provided with
the equipment.
